(1)Includes liability-classified awards of $14 million and equity-classified awards of $27 million for fiscal 2026, and liability-classified awards of $6 million and equity-classified awards of $27 million for fiscal 2025. Amounts recorded in fiscal 2024 are derived entirely from equity-classified awards.

Vesting requirements for awards are at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee thereof. Time-based vesting RSUs issued to employees typically vest in three equal annual installments. Time-based vesting RSUs issued to non-employee directors have a minimum one-year vesting period. PSUs typically have a three-year cliff vest, subject to achievement of the performance objectives. As of August 1, 2026, there was $97 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding share-based compensation arrangements (including RSUs and PSUs). This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years.

The fair value of RSUs and PSUs are determined based on the number of units granted and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock as of the grant date. RSUs include liability-classified awards granted during fiscal 2025, that can or will be settled in cash. Liability-classified awards are remeasured at the end of each reporting period. The Company had liabilities for cash-settled share-based compensation awards of $14 million as of August 1, 2026, of which the entire amount was classified as current. The Company had liabilities for cash-settled share-based compensation awards of $6 million as of August 2, 2025, of which the entire amount was classified as current. Cash paid to settle liability-classified awards was $10 million, $0 million and $0 million for fiscal 2026, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
